Hitler Pleads For Peace Amid Railroad Change Rumors
A large group of Pennsylvania and Erie Railroad officials met yesterday amid rumors of a major change. Officials did not confirm plans, but reports suggested potential eliminations of the Maple Avenue crossover and rerouting of the Erie line north of the passenger station, with PRR trains using south-side tracks. Local railroaders warned such a move may be unlikely soon, while a simpler west end yard alteration was considered more probable to ease engine-house traffic.
